Im sure Rahm and Rauner are meeting right now in Cuba, Rauners staff wont admit to where he is, any-who sure rahm has the support,if on top of the gov, not to pay his state mandated Chicago pension payment that is due in just days. I sure hope the two are sucking up the tropical son, and on Xmas go to a Chinese then to a movie. FUCK YOU RAHM

Policemen... The bestest and funniest soldiersin God's Earthly Army. Surely we are blessed tohave been counted in your number for a time.

We humbly give thanks to the Almighty to have been in his service and we hope that on the dayof final weighing & measuring that the works ofour hands while we wore the blue Silitoe Tartanwas sufficient for his Grace.

Yeah... We were rough, tough, rugged and rather inelegant some times but we always tried to be mindfulto do what was right and pay no mind to little mean menwere insistant that we be pleasers of THEM instead of doers of what's right.

Merry Christmas to all you upright stalwarts who inhabitthis place that our Main Man (Men?) SCC takes the time to run.

Heh...They call us churls and rabble and say at every turn that we are the problem in dire need of fixing but wesomehow know that is just not so.

They desperately look for "something" to hide behind.

All kinds of evil people and folks running around beingchased by nothing while demanding that we be checkedand curtailed to suit them and their agenda.

Take and make the time to be with your families and loved ones.

In spite of the lies being told...Policemen do matter even thoughwe're being made to go away.

Hold your heads up and be proud of what you all have donein spite seeing it being dismantled before your eyes by thosefrightened children who fancy themselves to be so smart and clever.

Merry Christmas /happy holidays to each & every one of you. Many thanks to first responders for all you do. You are always in our hearts & minds. Thanks for jumping in despite the ugliness & pain. Let the haters hate. You are treasured.With much respect, a civilian citizen.

Merry Christmas to all the hard working coppers and of course SCC readers and contributors!

Again and again day in day out the completely biased anti-police scum times has covers with stories against police! this paper is a dying relic, trying to stay relevant by pandering to the ghetto thugs, the mid dumbed robot liberals and of course the political elite! They want to resign rahm, 100 protesters of less are allowed to shut down shopping costing the city millions,and you do nothing rahm! You put johnny "new kid on the block" in charge but yet you move the strings, even from Cuba while Chicago is bleeding your on vacation again! Think rahm your jewish and many retailers are owned by Jewish people (Not a flame a reality), you are letting your own people who pay ultra-high taxes bleed and bleed bad! rahm admit failure and move on! You said in your crybaby speech how every child should be treated like yours, how many "people/kids of color are accompanying you on this trip? Are your taxpayer paid bodyguards along with you? what do your bodyguards do if they are here? are they in districts supplementing extremely low manpower or just "waiting" and being paid?

Merry Christmas to all the boys and girls in blue, be safe support each other and be smart. Good luck to ones who are forced to do the new contact card bs and also the districts that get the body cams, we will all have to wear them eventually and hopefully at some point the dept. Will let the media play some of those videos to show that most of us deal with disrespectful , ignorant savages everyday.Blue lives matter

Merry Christmas to all of you. Stay safe and remember family first! The Politicians can care less about you and Police administrators may know your name and give you the Christmas handshake or nod, but same as politicians, administrators could care less. Look out for each other, this coming year will be very trying and we will need to support each other!

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”—Isaiah 9:6.Merry Christmas to all.

i always said that working a holiday,birthday,wedding,graduation,kids ball game was "just like any other day".and it was a lie.its not just another day.. thanks to all working "just another day" today.

Let's see how the retirement rate increases in the new districts getting the new body cams... Old dogs don't like new tricks... Maxed out P.O.s just got the incentive they need to roll...

I'm a maxed out P.O. and the day they expect me to wear a body camera will be the day I turn my papers in.I'll wear a body camera when Rahm and the alder thieves wear one...... you know for their own protection and in the name of transparency and accountability!

It's not the critic that counts, the man that points out how the strong man stumbled or the doer of deed could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, who's face is marred with sweet dust and blood, who errors and comes short again and again. Who know the great enthusiasms the great devotions and spends himself in worthy cause; so his place will never be with those cold timid souls who know the neither the thrill of victory of the agony of defeat.

Santa can not come to Chicago next year he got caught by every red light and speed camera. There now a warrant for him and his sled will be booted towed my children want to know did the mayor do this for the children like everything he says it for the children

Santa got caught by every red light and speed camera and will not come to Chicago next year as there is a warrant for his arrest and his sled will be booted and towed that's why the mayor is in Cuba he didn't want his children to miss Christmas

What would happen if BLM and ISIS bumped into each other? BLM would be screaming for the police to save them! Get us some m-f POLEEEECE! YAHHHHHHHH! HELP ME! CALL ME A M-Fing BAMBULANCE!!!!! AAIIIIIEEEEEE!!!!!

What would happen if the #BLM and ISIS bumped...you must not be aware that ISIS is trying to recruit members of the #BLM and blacks or that the guns bought in the CA terrorist attack were bought by a Mexican American who checked himself into a mental hospital when he knew the guns would be traced back to him? The hoodlums that the policed pay to lie on productive, employed blacks would probably scream and cry and yell for the police, nobody else.

Merry Christmas to all the cheaters on the Lt's exam. You know number 1, number 2 and the rest of you dishonorable cheaters. I am going to make sure that everyone on the job knows you cheated. Deputy Eddie J and Deputy Eugene W gave you the answers. All of you are cheaters!!

Santa knows and soon the list will come out and all of you merit Sgts can explain how you scored so high (top 1 percent) when you morons couldn't make Sgt. How do you liars and cheaters face you're police officers knowing you cheated on an exam? How do you work with you're fellow Sgts knowing you cheated?

Why do you exempts that were subject matter experts feel you know what is best for the department to give a promotion to you're wife or friends as in the case of number one two three, four and five and the rest of you hacks?

Do you really think you are going to get away with it? Do you think we as Sgts are not going to take action. 60 percent of the list is made up of cheaters. You cost me a fair shot at the test. That means you screwed over my family. No one screws over my kids by cheating. You are worse then scum. I suggest you take back you're Lt shirts because you are soon to be embarrassed.

Pinko civilian that I am, I usually don't agree with you folks on political matters. (Though we on the left don't have much use for Rahm, either.) But I want you to know how much I appreciate CPD officers putting their lives on the line to protect my family and my city. It's a thankless job to extend civil rights to all citizens, including the uncivil ones. Thank you for doing your best: I'm glad you have a forum like this one to vent your frustrations.

2015 was tough for LEOs: may 2016 be a safer and less stressful year for all of you! Merry Christmas.

Chicago, Illinois, and National FOP Lodges have called for a boycott of this movie in case you forgot. But you have to be reminded? Who wakes you up in the morning? Makes sure you brush your teeth? Ties your shoes for you? Grow up and grow a set.

Cheating on a promotional test? In Chicago? In the CPD? Come on I don't believe it. Police brass are our leaders. They would not be unethical? That's against the law. They are the police and uphold the law.

What kind of leadership would that be? The citizens would not stand for that. The aldermen would not stand for that. The mayor would not stand for that.

That would not be right, would it? Imagine what would happen to CPD if that would be the case? Giving answers to your relatives or friends to promote them to the a stepping stone police rank, like Lt. Then again promoting 25 percent merit Lieutenants from anywhere on the list. Imagine That.

Now lets promote the merit Lieutenants that where no where near the top half of their class because they were given their rank due to a 25 percent meritorious promotion or the answers to the test to merit Commanders and XOs.

The same cabal that themselves are Merit promotes now merit promote every rank above Lieutenant with their choice off the merit Lieutenants list (25 percent meritorious and those that where given the answers). Imagine that.

Now lets wrap this up. Every supervisor above Lieutenant is a merit promotion that came off the merit Lieutenants list. Imagine that.

Let me recap. Those who are making decisions for the CPD( Minus the tiny dancer) including acting Superintendent Escalante and former 1st deputy Wysinger where merit Lieutenants. Where they given the answers? Who knows? But we know they where not at the top of their class. THIS GOES TO THE HEART OF WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE LEADERSHIP IN THIS DEPARTMENT. POOR LEADERSHIP FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. Incompetence at every level of command due to merit promotion. Imagine that.
